Woolly Mammoth Teeth

This fine collection of woolly mammoth teeth shows why they were considered the most bizarre teeth of any animal ever found. From the side, they resemble an extended accordion and are made up of a row of vertically orientated attached plates that when worn, create a washboard-like grinding surface. This made it easier to grind up hard-to-digest foods such as tough grass and thick vegetation. A mammoth has four teeth, two uppers, and two lower. A worn set is being pushed forward and out to make room for a new and unworn set.
